9 spots to get the best breakfast in Dubai this May
For the ones who roll out of bed for breakfast…
There are two types of people: those who 'don't do breakfast' and those who'll roll out of bed for it. If you're the latter, Dubai won't disappoint. When it comes to the best breakfast in Dubai, you can keep it classic with eggs and pancakes, ease into the day with a buttery croissant and coffee, or go all in with a Turkish, Spanish, or Mediterranean spread. However you start your morning, there's plenty worth waking up for. Here are 9 spots to get the best breakfast in Dubai this May. Yava

Jacquemus beckons you to Mykonos for the ultimate fashion-infused summer retreat
As the Mediterranean sun reaches its glory, Jacquemus unveils the season's most coveted fashion destination: a breezy, blue-hued boutique nestled along the powder-white sands of Nammos Beach in Mykonos. More than a mere retail space, this temporary installation—open through summer's end—represents the perfect confluence of high fashion and idyllic escapism, offering travelers a compelling reason to journey to Greece's most glamorous island. The collaboration with legendary beach club Nammos Village positions this pop-up as the centerpiece of Mykonos' summer social scene. Designed as a contemporary take on traditional Greek kiosks, the structure's vibrant azure facade mirrors the Aegean Sea, while inside, an exclusive capsule collection captures the essence of Jacquemus' sun-drenched aesthetic. Lightweight raffia separates, bias-cut silk dresses, and minimalist leather sandals compose a wardrobe made for leisurely lunches at Scorpios and golden-hour cocktails at Alemagou. Each piece serves as both souvenir and sartorial statement—the kind that only gains meaning when worn against Mykonos' iconic backdrop of whitewashed windmills and cobalt-domed chapels. What elevates this experience beyond typical holiday shopping is its deliberate immersion in the Nammos ecosystem. Guests can transition seamlessly from browsing the boutique's curated offerings to securing a coveted daybed at the beach club, where the boundaries between retail therapy and relaxation dissolve. The collection itself—available only at this location—includes special-edition pieces featuring custom Grecian motifs, ensuring visitors return home with more than just memories. View this post on Instagram A post shared by JACQUEMUS (@jacquemus) For the fashion-conscious traveler, this collaboration presents a rare opportunity to align one's itinerary with the industry's most discerning tastes. The boutique operates on island time (daily from 11 AM until sunset), encouraging visitors to embrace the slow rhythm of Greek summer while indulging in retail moments as carefully composed as their Instagram feeds. Practicalities underscore the pop-up's exclusivity: no reservations are required, but Nammos' VIP hosts can arrange private viewings for those who prefer to shop away from the midday crowds. With direct flights from major European hubs and Mykonos' reputation as the summer's most dynamic social stage, Jacquemus' latest venture offers the ultimate justification for a stylish Mediterranean getaway. In a season saturated with pop-ups, this one stands apart for ability to crystallize the very essence of summer longing. After all, true luxury lies in experiences that linger long after the tan fades. – For more on luxury lifestyle, news, fashion and beauty follow Emirates Woman on Facebook and Instagram Images: Supplied & Feature Image: Supplied

There's a new Italian café in Abu Dhabi and it's impossibly chic
There's a new reason to visit Saadiyat Island (as if we needed one) and it smells like espresso and tastes like la dolce vita. Café Ginori has officially opened at The St. Regis Saadiyat Island Resort, Abu Dhabi, and it's nothing short of a love letter to Italian elegance, fine craftsmanship and timeless style. This isn't your average café. As soon as you step into Café Ginori, you can expect to enjoy a fully immersive experience that pays tribute to the incredible heritage of Ginori 1735 porcelain (yes, that's almost 300 years of history), housed within one of Abu Dhabi's most iconic luxury resorts. Designed with flair and a dash of whimsy, the space is decked out with bold elements from Ginori's Domus home décor line. We're talking vibrant Oriente Italiano wallpaper, plush bespoke cushions, and beautiful custom-designed seating. It's a visual feast even before the food arrives so make sure you come ready to take some snaps. Speaking of food, the menu is a standout. Curated by the café's so-called 'Master of Plating' (yes, really), it's a modern ode to Italian classics. Expect artisanal pastries, vibrant antipasti, and really good espresso. Each dish is as beautiful as it is delicious, so prepare to be fed and wowed. Whether you're popping in for a quick cappuccino or lingering over a long, luxurious brunch, this spot is all about capturing the spirit of allegria – that uniquely Italian joy of life, flavour and design. So next time you find yourself on Saadiyat Island, make a detour to Café Ginori. It's where Mediterranean café culture meets St. Regis glamour – with a generous swirl of porcelain charm. If you need a refresher on The St. Regis Saadiyat Island Resort, this a 5-star hotel on the shores of Saadiyat Island with 376 guest rooms. The resort offers three outdoor pools and a 25-meter indoor lap pool at The St. Regis Athletic Club. There's also the award-winning The Spa at The St. Regis Saadiyat Island Resort and, of course, lots more dining options: Olea: All-Day Dining Sontaya: South East Asian Lemoni Garden by Sontaya: Rooftop Bar Mazi Abu Dhabi: Modern Greek The Manhattan Lounge: Bar and Lounge Buddha-Bar Beach Abu Dhabi: Pacific Rim Cuisine To book please call +971 2 498 8443 or email
